Ahgassi Gopchang - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I go here about once a month. Food is always great. The perfect spot to just sit down and drink with some friends. Service is one of the best in all of ktown kbbq, especially Yuna. She's the best! You would definitely get the best kbbq experience here. read more

I went here for the first time on a Friday night for dinner and hands down one of the best kbbq spots I have ever been to. The service and food was so good, I already want to go back. They have a great variety of combo options for all types of meat lovers. My friend and I went with the Ahgassi combo which included beef and pork. You can taste the quality of the meat in every bite! I was so amazed at how fast the service was and how they kept track of all the tables they cooked for without burning the meats! I loved the banchan selection and kimchi stew. PRO TIP: They offer valet parking, but it gets extremely busy. Arrive early, you might get lucky with metered parking. Make a reservation ahead of time. My friend and I were in and out of here within 35 minutes! We were hungry and the service was just that fast. I would recommend this to anyone craving kbbq! read more

I just wanted to give a major shout out to our amazing server, Hyunjung! She is the absolute sweetest and made our experience the best ever. Shes also really skilled at cooking so everything was perfection. In the end, she formed our fried rice into a heart.. SHE IS AMAZING!! I can see why this place is so popular! Everything was 10/10. We got the Modeum combo with a side of pork jowl and I have to say that this is some of the best offal I've ever had. The flavors were mind blowing. Even down to the banchan, everything was thoughtfully made and seasoned to perfection. read more

I go here with friends in town and friends out of town. It's a staple in any itinerary because quality of the meals are just SO GOOD. We always get the Beef Combo, and if we're feeling the craving we get the Daejang (large intestines) .. if you're feeling adventurous you should most def try, it's chewy savory creamy goodness Our recent server Yuna was excellent. The grilling was perfect and we were treated to one of the best meals we've had in this branch. Hope we get her again next time! read more

Ahgassi Gopchang - Gopchang! - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Luckily, we had a reservation so we did not have to wait more for our table. You do need your entire party to sit though. They have some prefix options, but you can also order ala carte. They also come around and cook for you, which is also a plus. Their fans are going strong, so it's not too smoky as well. I normally feel like I leave Korean barbecue restaurants smelling like food, but this wasn't the case this time. Meats are really tasty and cooked very well by the staff. My only complaint was that the hostess wasn't the friendliest when you check in and when we ordered the waitress, also wasn't that friendly and we felt rushed when placing the order. They have valet parking, but I was able to find meter street parking that was free after 6 PM. read more

We haven't been to Ahgassi Gopchang in a very very long time and we had good memories of the restaurant so we were all excited to go! We got there late at night around 10pm Saturday and we got seated right away. We got their ahgassi combo and one order of large intestine. We liked all the side dishes that they had out, and all the meats were good quality. The bean sprouts that came with the brisket is always clutch. Love it! The pork belly was a bit on the chewier side but overall the food tasted good and we all had a good experience! Our Server was really nice and the restaurant was clean and good ambience for a place to chill and hang out with friends! read more

20 minute wait for a party of 4 on a Sunday night :) Had a wonderful experience here, server was nice and attentive. We got the Ahgassi combo and their banchan was really yummy and thankfully didn't have that sink water taste lol. Also tried their intestine, not the biggest fan but wanted to try. Good when crispy! Valet parking and street parking! About $70 per person out of 4 ppl for the 2 combos :) read more

Service: Amazing service with friendly staff. They worked quickly while also giving us the time to eat the meat before cooking the next plate. Food: All the beef were so tender and perfectly seasoned. Some restaurants' meats are either too bland or too salty, but it was perfect here. Side dishes were great and refillable. Kimchi Stew was probably the highlight of the meal. One of the best I've ever had. Parking: Valet only. I recommend ubering or street parking. Wait Times: Restaurant is usually packed and they take reservations. My walk-in time estimate was 1 and a half hours, but we were seated at the 1 hour mark. read more

It was not too busy on a Sunday afternoon, we were party of 8, including 3 kids. To celebrate one of the cousins birthday, the food was delicious, services are good but not feeling attentive, always needed to ask for something! I personally don't like their side dishes, average $40-50/person. Valet Parking on site (cash $4) read more

Ahgassi is hands down one of the best Korean bbq places around Korean Town. From the free side dishes to the dipping sauce and the high quality meat, you can't beat Ahgassi anywhere else. Their sauces taste amazing and their egg soup is something I always get here. It is another one of those spots where the employees cook for you rather than you cook for yourself, so you can focus on eating and chatting with friends than cooking yourself. They have ample amount of seating, but their booth seats are a bit uncomfortable compared to the chair seating, but other than that I would recommend visiting here at least once. read more

I came here after a media event just right across the street. I absolutely loved this place. Sure, it's not an AYCE, but the meat is so delicious. All the banchan was also delicious. We came on a Saturday night, and lucky for us, there wasn't a wait. For anyone that's looking for quality meat in Ktown, make this the spot! read more

Came here late on a Saturday night with a friend for dinner. The staff here was SO friendly and were happy to help at any second. We got the Ahgassi combo which was more than enough food for 2 people. I was stuffed! I enjoyed the beef here but the pork belly was pretty much all fat. Of course it was still delicious, but not my favorite pork belly ever. For the Ahgassi combo, you get brisket, short rib, pork steak and your choice of pork belly or pork jowl for $79. I think that's a pretty great price for how much food you get. It's also a major plus that their vents don't allow for ANY grill smoke to travel. It's nice to dine and enjoy your BBQ without sitting in a smoky room. I would totally come back! Environment was super chill and it was easy to get a table by just walking in (though it was Coachella weekend, so not sure if that makes a difference)! read more

Okay, I'll admit I wanted to go here because it was recommended by Jin of BTS. It was two Saturdays ago and slightly passed the lunch hour rush and there was no waiting. The service was more polite than friendly but maybe it was a hectic lunch crowd? Table was prepared with the banchan plated as we were seated. We ordered Ahgassi Combo and it was all very delicious except for the brisket which was a bit tough and chewy. I ended up eating most of it because my friend immediately went for the next cut of meat. We enjoyed everything else and really liked the banchan. I would come back for the Gopchang Combo. Now to find someone who will try it with me read more

Had a reservation for 8PM on a Sunday and were seated immediately, which was great. We ordered the Small Ahgassi Combo ($79). Even though it's not AYCE, the portion was definitely enough for two. We even had leftovers and took the pork jowl to go. The meats were high quality and really delicious. It also came with steamed egg, and we chose the kimchi stew, which paired well with everything. Service was very fast and attentive, and I appreciated that they cook the meats for you. Parked in the back lot with valet ($4 cash or $7 card), though there aren't many spots available. Definitely a must-try in the area! read more

Modern with flower themed Korean bbq. Good prices for premium quality meats, banchan & excellent service. Our waitress cook meats & cut them for us. Also, cook fried rice for us at the end. Perfect night to hang out with friends without robbing the bank price tags. Plus, lovely steamed egg & seafood soup comes with the set! Highly recommended beef tongue. It is out of the world good in my view. So tender, flavorful & perfect! I want to go back for more! read more

I was very excited to try Ahgassi Gopchang since I heard it was BTS favorite restaurant. We came on a Friday night at 6:30pm and it was not busy. We still used the valet parking which was $4 cash or $5 Venmo/zelle. We also booked a reservation on resy just in case. My boyfriend & I ordered the ahgasshi combo with an additional order of beef intestines. It was a good amount of food for 2 people. I also liked how the banchan was different from other Korean bbq places. The banchan actually hit and was seasoned very well. Quality of meats was also good. The combo also came with a kimchi soup and soft egg. My gripe was the service. Our server seemed very unwelcoming and it made me anxious to ask questions or for simple things like a napkin. Every time he came over to cook the meat, I felt very uncomfortable. They automatically selected 20% gratuity on the bill, which I can understand since they cook - but I feel like he did not provide that level of service. Overall; the food was good but I think I would prefer going to Baekjong. read more

Ahgassi Gopchang - Ahgassi combo - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We ordered the set menu, and the quality of the meats was a bit mixed--some cuts were excellent, while others were just okay. The service, however, was outstanding and definitely one of the highlights of our visit. If it's your first time visiting, finding the entrance can be a little confusing. We parked on the street and spent a few minutes trying to figure out where to go. For anyone visiting, it's much easier to enter through the parking lot, where the restaurant entrance is located. The banchan (side dishes) were quite good, and I really enjoyed the atmosphere inside. The decor was fun and unique, making the dining experience feel more special. Overall, the food was good, the service was excellent, and the ambiance was enjoyable. I'd come back, especially for the service and the overall experience. read more

Okay, not going to lie, I just went because BTS went there LOL.. the restaurant itself is nice but to be honest wasn't my cup of tea, the waiter seemed rushed, he would pay more attention to a table full of young women than help us out a bit atleast.. also... i dont like that they cook the food for you and cut it... but anyway.. just went there for the experience.. Would I go again, not really.. But hey.. maybe you'll like it read more

We came here for lunch and didn't have to wait to be seated. We ordered the Ahgassi combo, which was enough to feed three of us with a little leftover. The meat was good overall, the pork steak and pork jowl were cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. There's also a nice variety of unique side dishes that I don't usually see at other KBBQ places, though I do wish they had rice paper. The steamed egg was soft and fluff and the tofu soup was flavorful as well. The servers were attentive and cooked and cut the meat for us. They also noticed we were still eating and moved the meat onto our plates so it wouldn't sit on the grill and become too tough. The inside ambiance is nice and lively, and the ventilation is great, I didn't leave smelling like kbbq afterward, which I really appreciated. Overall, it's a really solid kbbq spot, though the meat quality could be a little better. read more

i was very excited to finally try agassi gopchang after hearing so many great things, but unfortunately my experience fell far short of expectations we ordered the gopchang combo for 2, which included intestine, rice cakes, mushrooms, onions, potatoes, and fried rice. the intestine was disappointingly chewy and lacked the crispy texture that makes gopchang enjoyable. i've honestly had better gopchang at ayce korean bbq restaurants what really ruined the experience, however, was the service. our server, harry, took about 10 minutes to come take our order. after that, he completely disappeared and was nowhere to be seen for roughly 20 minutes. during that time, we received no updates and couldn't find him when we needed assistance. while walking to the restroom, i noticed him sitting in the corner of the restaurant on what appeared to be a break. another nearby table was also confused and looking around for their server eventually, we had to ask another server for help. she ended up cooking our entire meal while also managing her own tables. she was friendly and helpful, and honestly did her best to salvage the experience. it felt as though no one had been informed that our server had stepped away had the food been exceptional, i might have overlooked some of the service issues. unfortunately, the food was average at best, and combined with the poor service, it made for a very disappointing visit overall, i found the restaurant to be significantly overhyped, and i don't plan on returning read more

I love their banchan (side dishes) here, they're so good! The sweet potatoes and perilla leaf are my personal favorite as I think it pairs well with the meat. Service was pretty quick and they cook the meat do you. The decor of the place is also nice with traditional themes. The 2 person combo comes with a lot of meat, and it comes with beef and pork. they offer a choice of pork jowl or belly. Valet parking is available but they also have street parking! read more

We stopped by Ahgassi for a late 9:30pm dinner after a relaxing time at a spa nearby. As a party of two, we just got the ahgassi combo and mountain tripe fried rice to share and it was good amount of food. The combos all come with a stew and steamed egg. The meat was good quality and our server was constantly checking on us and grilling our food as it arrived. It was a nice touch from most kbbq places I've been to where you cook yourself, but I also enjoy doing the cooking sometimes. We loved that they're open until midnight and there were still plenty of people despite the later hours. They also have a happy hour menu so this would be a great spot with friends before or after a fun night out. read more

Food was amazing as always. Ahgassi Gopchang never disappoints. They serve more than gopchang here so don't let their name fool you.

this place is basically a go to place in ktown for how long it's been open. not sure what was wrong last night w the service but when our table spends over 400 for dinner and drinks i would expect at least one check in by the waiter if we needed anything. I get that it gets busy but that doesn't excuse bad service. the food is solid still but service very lacking. we had to flag down and wait for service and we even left a good tip because we want to support the business but when we get ignored even when we want to pay the bill to the point I have to get up to get a server one table next to us to help then it's a deal breaker for me to come back. read more

My sister and I have always loved Ahgassi Gopchang. We've been driving an hour just to come here because we genuinely love the food and the experience. Yuna is always so sweet and makes us feel comfortable every time we come in. She was especially kind to my sister while she was pregnant, going out of her way to accommodate her cravings and even offering her watermelon juice. It was such a thoughtful gesture, and we really appreciated how welcoming and caring she was toward us. I truly love this place so much. The food is amazing, the service is always great, and Yuna makes the experience even more special. We'll definitely continue making the hour drive because it's always worth it. read more

My husband and I ordered the Aghassi Combo for 2. It was a good amount of food and everything was tasty. Nothing spectacular, but still solid overall. My favorites were the soybean paste stew and the kimchi. I do wish they offered either rice paper or radish paper though.

We heard about Ahgassi Gopchang because so many K-pop stars have mentioned how delicious it is -- and they were right! As soon as we walked in, we saw walls full of autographs from famous K-pop idols, which was super fun to see and take pictures with. We ordered the gopchang combo, and it was incredible -- such a treat! Even if you didn't grow up eating intestines, I'd still recommend giving it a try. It's crispy, savory, and packed with flavor. They mix in green onion and chive kimchi while cooking, which adds a great balance and removes any gaminess. The potatoes soak up the fat and get perfectly crispy too. All the side dishes were fresh and refreshing, the perfect contrast to the rich meat. Service was fast and the servers all work together. Overall, everything was so tasty -- I'm already wanting to go back ASAP! read more

You may have heard of this place because of BTS and other various Korean celebrities visiting and it is definitely worth the hype. Came here on a Saturday night after a concert and was not that busy. There's a small lot so parking is not difficult but it is valet, so just be aware of that. When you walk in you're greeted with a wall of signatures from the different Korean celebrities that have visited. The staff were friendly and we were quickly seated. The quality of meats is evident, with each one coming out juicy and tender thanks to our server for cooking. This is not an AYCE kbbq experience but the meat quality is top notch. Our server was also super quick, I'd say all the meats were cooked in under 10 minutes. I highly recommend checking this place out not just for its fame, but because the food and service are great! read more

We love Ahgassi Gopchang. We don't live in Los Angeles, in fact we are over 400 miles north. But whenever we're in the area, it is a must stop for our family. We enjoyed the Large Beef Combo. There were 5 of us, but my grandaughter is a vegetarian. The meat, all the sides, the service, the atmosphere, everything was perfect. As for my grandaughter, she found plenty to eat that allowed her to enjoy the experience as well. I would recommend Ahgassi Gopchang to everyone. At least try it once. You will keep coming back. read more

It's soooooo good!! I completely understand the hype. Even if you're not here for the celebrity wall of autographs, the quality and the service are top tier!!! We ordered the large beef combo + kimchi pancake for 4 people and everyone left pretty full! The combo came with steamed egg and a choice of soup (we got the kimchi stew, pretty small portion once you portion it out but hey it's free) The steamed egg was sooooo fluffy and rose up so high out of the pot!! So fluffy so perfectly seasoned it's really so good!! The meat was also so perfect, so tender, so juicy and perfectly cooked by our server. They'll come by and set it on the grill, leave you to chill, and come back again to mix it up or flip it etc and they'll let you know when it's ready to eat. Personally love this so much more than when they start it... and then just leave it for you to finish OR when they just kinda stand there the entire time and it's kind of awkward to talk. Kimchi pancake (unpictured) but it's nice and crispy on the bottom which is hard to find !!! We devoured it so quickly (hence the lack of pictures) ALSO the banchans here are next level because they're actually good and truly accompany the meat!! The pickled perilla leaves and radishes were my favorite and they were super generous with refills. read more
